Cope vs. Wheeler Yuta, Strickland/Ricochet contract signing set for AEW Dynamite

A new match and a contract signing were announced for this Wednesday’s AEW Dynamite.

After agreeing to the match last Wednesday, Swerve Strickland and Ricochet will sign the contract for their no. 1 contender’s match at next Sunday’s AEW Revolution.

After Wheeler Yuta defeated Willie Mack on Saturday, AEW World Champion Jon Moxley made his way out through the crowd. He told Yuta off mic that it is very important that Cope doesn’t get a clear shot at the title at AEW Revolution, and that he is not to walk out of Dynamite under his own power.

That was later clarified as it was announced that Cope will take on Yuta this Wednesday ahead of his challenge of Moxley at Revolution. Cope has recently taken out other members of the Death Riders with Yuta and Moxley remaining.

Here’s the current lineup for Sacramento:

  • Cope vs. Wheeler Yuta
  • Swerve Strickland & Ricochet AEW Revolution contract signing

Orange Cassidy vs. 10 added to AEW Dynamite

AEW has announced Orange Cassidy vs. Preston “10” Vance of The Dark Order for Wednesday’s edition of Dynamite. 

John Silver tweeted about the match today and the official AEW Twitter account retweeted it. 

Cassidy challenged Dark Order’s Mr. Brodie Lee for the TNT Championship on last week’s Dynamite in a losing effort. After the match, Lee and the Dark Order looked to attack Cassidy, but a returning Cody made the save.

  • FTR vs. SCU (Frankie Kazarian & Scorpio Sky) for the AEW World Tag Team Championships in a 20 minute challenge
